Hi Zonn!

Well, not seeing many posts for sale, but at the same time folks are
selling a bunch of vector related items, accessories and neat new
designs, I thought that the injection of a couple of old rarer games
would not be out of place. I do not plan on using this to promote the
regular stuff (Star Wars, Space Wars, Speed Freaks, etc) just the
unusual. So the question raised is, do a fair number of the folks, both
posters and lurkers agree to the once a year or so FA: posts? Or should
this just be noted in RGVAM?

Flames welcome, I'll put on my silver suit...

I too do not want the lists become spam sales media.
